    We are Tony and Jane and we are living in and renovating our old Relais De Poste/Coaching Inn.
    We live in the middle of France in a region called The Berry.
    We have over 40 rooms to renovate so there is plenty of work to be done. We also love to trawl the local Brocantes, flea markets and antique shops for quirky furnishings and furniture.
    We love to find out about local history and often visit other peoples buildings including our friends’ Chateaux.

    Tony P's house is a little gem of a place, and the paint colour choices are brilliant. It was fun to meet him as well. My sister and I went to the Abbey and had the tour, but unfortunately the restaurant was closed that day. Your meal looked amazing! Great vlog Jane!

      I’m jealous of Tony’s little house. It’s going to be so cute and sweet when he’s done. It doesn’t look like he has river access like you do but can he hear the river running with his windows open? What is your lodging season. Hoping to stay with both you and the boys in 2025.

    You have to make the flue pipe higher above the brick of the chimney...so it can draw!

    My chimney tends to do the same thing when it's cold. I've found burning a big wad of paper first, before I build a real fire causes the smoke to draw up the chimney. Thanks again Jane!

    Jane,
    Tony has painted his house a very lovely pastel light lemon coloured paint, that complements your property perfectly. The colour trim pastel colour green is also lovely choose . Glad the wood burner is now working properly with the metal pipe, your Tony connected for them. The market looked like a fun day to enjoy.

    We had a similar fire in France which failed its inspection because that pipe coming from the back of the fire must have a T junction at the bottom so that the soot/ashes can be collected from the bottom.

      Do you mean so that the chimney can be swept Steve? We know it has to be swept every 12 months and have a certificate for the insurance, so we may need to change that, we'll see what they say, thanks for the info

      @stevesharpe361 6 днів тому

      @@notquiteachateaudiy When I had mine swept annually, the sweep always made an observation on the cert that the laws had changed and that a 'T' junction was needed. If you google search for 'chimney stove pipe t joint' you will see what I mean. HOWEVER I am not a sweep or qualified so better to get it from the horses mouth so to speak.

      I should make clear. It didn't fail the inspection, just that the pipe was listed as an observation on the insurance report with a recommendation to replace.

    You'll need to do your building facade now so do you own all to the end of that street? I am guessing you aren't allowed planters at the front at your doorway. I like the chairs you were eyeing up did you get them? they would look nice in your new project when it's done with the old wine cellar ;) well done Tony and Jane :) and other Tony and friend too :)

      You are right Francis, it is extremely wonky! It's a very old house, around 350 to 400 years we think, so a lot of it is a bit crooked LOL. It is structurally safe though, it's not going anywhere!
